Throughout The Vampire Diaries Series[]

Season Two[]

In The Descent, an emotionally pained Damon, who had to mercilessly kill Rose to end her suffering from a slow and painful death from a werewolf bite, encountered Jessica when he pretended to be sick or injured in the middle of the road. Shocked and taking pity on him, Jessica stopped to help but soon became disgusted with him upon discovering he was intoxicated. She tried to leave upon the realization that he was drunk.

However, he compelled her not to move. After a short talk, during which he confided in her about his conflicted feelings, saying that he painfully misses being human but believes that it's in his nature to kill and it tears him up inside. He then pretended to release her, saying she could go, but instead killed her after all giving in to what he believed to be his real nature. In the next episode, the killing was on the news and Damon contemplates what he's done.
